Two points that don't really add to the discussion, though I thought I'd
mention:
1) it's obviously becoming a mainstream issue - Prime's "The Morning Show" had
a couple of minutes on it this morning, complete with an EFA talking head.
2) I just received a response from Nick Minchin's office (I cc'ed my letter to
Sen. Conroy to both his shadow counterpart and my local member (Alby
Shultz)). It seems the opposition "fully supports guarding our children from
being exposed to inappropriate internet content and is of the firm belief
that parental and adult supervision and guidance should be front and centre
of all efforts." The letter only included promises of making "a considered
assessment (of the trial) based on its outcomes. This will include analysis
of the specifications and performance of the filtering methods tested."
Having now contributed to a dying thread, I'll crawl back into my box...
